Job Description

Principal Data Scientist

eSimplicity

• Lead data science work across structured and unstructured program data, including data collection, processing, cleaning, profiling, and preparation for analysis and modeling on a governed data platform. • Design, develop, train, evaluate, and refine machine learning models and AI services, selecting appropriate algorithms and techniques for specific customer and mission needs. • Support deployment, monitoring, and maintenance of model performance in cloud environments using model lifecycle management, model serving, vector search, model evaluation, and related MLOps tooling. • Deliver capabilities across both program AI tracks: internal AI-enabled delivery acceleration (AI-assisted schema tagging, automated code review, documentation generation, ticket automation) and user-facing AI services for customer users and approved consumers (AI assistants, conversational analytics, document-grounded search, and approved retrieval-augmented generation services). • Operate within the program’s AI governance intake and review process, registering all production and pilot AI use cases before deployment, routing managed endpoints through a governed AI gateway layer, and maintaining inference logging, PII guardrails, rate controls, and human oversight and escalation paths. • Plan and conduct proofs of concept and capability-gate evaluations that assess accuracy, governance integration, cost, operational overhead, and alignment to customer policy before scaling new AI capabilities. • Embed responsible AI and equity requirements into delivery, including algorithmic risk and impact assessments, bias testing across relevant demographic and programmatic subgroups, plain-language limitations and escalation paths, and periodic bias and drift re-review. • Collaborate closely with ML engineers, data engineers, platform teams, and cross-functional partners to develop and maintain the infrastructure and governed cloud environment required for AI/ML operations. • Create, maintain, and improve documentation for methodologies, code, assumptions, experiments, evaluation artifacts, and decisions, including documentation of AI tools within the software bill of materials (SBOM), to support reproducibility and governance review. • Communicate technical findings, strategic vision, risks, tradeoffs, and business value to leadership and key stakeholders, and provide people-management support and day-to-day technical guidance to a team of 3–5 engineers.

Job Requirements

  • Master’s degree in computer science, data science, statistics, mathematics, or a related field.
  • 12+ years of experience in data analysis, data modeling, data profiling, and data management, with strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills.
  • Deep understanding of CMS policies, regulations, and security and privacy expectations, with direct experience in Medicaid, CHIP, or comparable federal data and reporting programs.
  • All candidates must pass public trust clearance through the U.S. Federal Government.
  • Strong experience with exploratory data analysis (EDA), feature engineering, analysis, and visualization across structured and unstructured data.
  • Strong experience with machine learning modeling, including framing business problems, selecting model approaches, training models, evaluating performance, and interpreting results.
  • Proficiency in at least one programming language or data platform, such as Python, PySpark, R, SQL, Scala, Java, or C++, and experience with common machine learning frameworks and libraries.
  • Experience with big data technologies, distributed processing, and data science toolsets, and experience using source control and CI/CD pipelines to support version control, collaboration, testing, and repeatable delivery.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Knowledge of sensitive Government data handling, approved data-use practices, least-privilege access, privacy-aware data publication, public data controls, cell suppression, and Section 508/WCAG considerations for public-facing data products.
  • Ability to comply with customer-specific security, privacy, accessibility, quality, training, and data-handling requirements for assigned systems and data.
